The arrival of large imagers like Megacam at the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope running in a survey mode, make it possible to detect and follow a large amount of high redshift supernovae on the same instrument. Using Megacam during 5 years around 1000 Type Ia SNe should be detected, z ranging from 0.3 to 1.2, and more than 500 will be usable for measuring the cosmological parameters via the Hubble diagram. They should allow the first leasurement of the cosmic state equation parameter w. A first test run, using the CFH 12k calera in a "rolling mode" has been done last spring at the CFHT. Detection procedure and preliminary results are presented in this article.
